Welcome! Today we will learn about US symbols. We will also plan and edit our writing.
A symbol stands for an idea. The US flag stands for our country. The flag has stars and stripes.

Before you write, plan your ideas. You can draw a symbol like the flag. You can brainstorm words about it.
After writing, you must edit your sentence. Fix big capital letters. Put a period at the end.
